Uniform and Gear Colors

Lots of questions around the web about gear colors.

Will try to clear it up some:

You gear cannot cover a large portion of your exposed body with the opposing side's color/pattern- enough to change the overall appearance of your color/pattern See the pic - those guys are doing it wrong! 

It should not stand out against your uniform color/pattern such that it impacts your ability to conceal yourself - this makes not only you but your unit easier to locate.

It needs to be a subdued color or pattern and not a commercial-only or bright pattern.
